Set autocomplete to off:
The autocomplete property sets or returns the value of the autocomplete attribute in a form.
When autocomplete is on, the browser automatically complete values based on values that the user has entered before.
Tip: It is possible to have autocomplete "on" for the form, and "off" for specific input fields, or vice versa.
Tip: In some browsers you may need to activate an autocomplete function for this to work (Look under "Preferences" in the browser's menu).
The autocomplete property is supported in all major browsers.
Note: The autocomplete property is not supported in Opera 12 and earlier versions.
